Fan was critically injured after falling from a stand at Wembley stadium

A fan has been severely injured after falling from a stand at Wembley stadium in the course of England's victory over Croatia yesterday.


Witnesses noticed the spectator fall at round 2pm, when the game kicked off. They then plunged toward seats and concrete below, in accordance to reports.


A spokesperson for the stadium stated the individual had been taken to clinic and was in a serious condition.


According to the Evening Standard, one England fan said: 'We noticed his legs go over the barrier and then he fell and hit the floor and did not move.


'It appeared to take staff a while to get to him. One man close to us who noticed the whole issue was crying his eyes out.'


A Wembley stadium spokesperson said: 'We can affirm that a spectator fell from the stands just after kick-off in the match between England and Croatia at Wembley Stadium.


'The spectator was given on-site medical attention and was then taken to clinic in a serious condition.


'We will proceed to work with UEFA to make sure the matter is totally investigated and we are continuing to monitor the situation.'


UEFA verified that a spectator fell from the stands and was taken to hospital in a serious condition.


Wembley stadium was at round 25 per cent capacity due to Covid social distancing, with about 22,500 spectators in attendance.


The game continued in spite of the incident, with Raheem Sterling scoring the triumphing goal as England beat Croatia 1-0 to commence their Euro 2020 bid.
